title: Acute cardiac resynchronization therapy for the failing left, right, or single ventricle after repaired congenital heart disease.
abstract: Use of cardiac resynchronization in children and young adults with congenital heart disease has been described in a variety of anecdotal cases and pooled institutional summaries which report mid-term results. This manuscript addresses use of cardiac resynchronization and/or multisite pacing in children in the acute postoperative period with a failing right, left, or single ventricle.
